I have a 69 Camaro with staggered shocks. I am doing a Ls1 rear brake swap. I already have 2 L/H backing plates and 2 L/H brake calipers.

I have to get a bracket made in order have a working E-brake.

1.My question is. What is the benefit from having staggered shocks to Shocks on the inside other than tire clearance.?

2. Would you sell the other L/H backing plate and L/h calipers to get the R/H Backig plate and caliper in order to use the shock relocation kit?

Big note here is that the Rear Shock relocation kit and has a built in bracket for the E-brake. that was the only Main reason I would want it. If you can shed light on the benefits that would make it easier for me. Thanks much Ray

My car is just a once in a month driver and never saw a track. Just trying to see if it would be worth the money spent.
are you running leafs or link rear suspension?

if you are going to move the shocks for tire clearance then you wont have to go staggered brakes. I would just run both shocks aft the differential and uppers mount inside of the frame.
